General Manager Duncan Bruce and Head Chef Travis Finch receive the American Express Platinum Restaurant Award on behalf of Hartford House from Yvonne Elford, American Express Regional Manager

American Express Platinum Fine Dining Awards 2015

A guest is the most important visitor to our premises. He is not dependant on us, we are dependent on him. He is not an interruption of our work; he is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business, he is part of it. We are not doing him a favour; he is doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so.

— Duncan Bruce / General Manager

Hartford House has yet again been voted amongst the country's best for its 10th consecutive year as a Fine Dining Platinum Restaurant by American Express.

The American Express Platinum Fine Dining Awards continues to reflect our country’s rising culinary spirit and serves as a catalyst in championing the enhancement of the fine dining industry and experience in South Africa.

So that being said we will continue our mission statement, WE PROMISE TO SERVE which simply means; "A guest is the most important visitor to our premises. He is not dependant on us, we are dependent on him. He is not an interruption of our work; he is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business, he is part of it. We are not doing him a favour; he is doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so."

We thank you for your continued support and we look forward to welcoming you to Hartford.
